Sword of Daybreaker

  The information conveyed by Melita made Kohaku a thin, cold sweat. Gawain remained calm. He looked at Melita’s eyes and asked, “Did you not think about the problem with that tower before?”

"Some compatriots thought about it, but we couldn't do anything before," Melita sighed-the current situation of Talronde made Long sigh. There are too many embarrassments that are difficult to speak to outsiders, but Gao Wen can be regarded as a dragon among mortals. One of the few "old friends" among the nations, she no longer shy away from what she said here, "The Tower of Adversity is located in the northwest of the mainland, and the safety zone we currently regain is mainly concentrated on the broken coast southeast of Tarrond. As well as the offshore land, there is a vast wasteland between them. The environment in the depths of the wasteland is very harsh. Until now, we still can’t get too deep, so if we want to confirm the situation of the tower, we can only go around from the sea-around A big circle, bypassing the main contaminated area and space rifts, was too expensive for us not long ago."

   "So now you finally free your hands to pay attention to that tower?" Amber couldn't help asking, "There is someone over there now...is the dragon responsible for monitoring?"

"After barely solving the problem of short-term food supply and the synergist backlash of some tribesmen, Agundor sent a small team to the northwest coast, where they found a safer foothold and established an advance camp." Melita nodded, "They will contact Agondoer once every two days. Although this kind of surveillance is very poor, it is better than nothing."

   "Contact once in two days?" Gao Wen frowned immediately, "Will this loophole be too big? Two days are even enough for the out-of-control dragon to fly over the stormy sea."

"There is no way," Melita sighed. "Now the communication on the Tarrond continent has been cut off, and the original Omega network has been disintegrated. We dug out some old signal stations from the ruins, and started a factory for production. Small communicators, but these things can only be used to maintain small-scale communications-if the team advancing to the camp wants to contact Agundor, they must first fly over a contaminated area to the top of the static boundary of the atmosphere. Gondor will also have a large contaminated area of ​​Longfei's Vietnamese coast, come near a recently restored communication station, and then establish contact through powerful messaging spells and the amplification assistance of the communication station...Considering the current situation of the advance camp It’s the limit to have such a communication every two days."

   Gao Wen opened his mouth, and the doubt in his heart could only be swallowed back, and after a long time it turned into a sigh: "...sounds really not easy."

"At least we have successfully established a safe shelter camp near the Broken Coast, and the situation has been developing in a good direction," Melita smiled reluctantly, "and judging from the news from the forward camp, at least until now. , The dragon has not been affected by the “things” in the tower of the tide, the team monitors the sea and sky near the tower day and night to ensure that no intelligent creatures enter there."

  Gawain listened to Merita's words, and he was silent for a while before he said: "Is this what Herragor said in the letter?"

  Merita nodded: "Yes."

   "Perhaps I am worried," Gawain frowned. "Many times, when your boss tells you,'The market may be down next,' the market has actually collapsed..."

Merita was obviously taken aback by Gawain’s words. She obviously showed some nervousness, but she calmed down soon, and shook her head after a brief thought: "I don’t think so... Lagor is a sensible and powerful leader. He cannot be ambiguous on this matter, and even if there is a problem with the judgment of the leader of Herragor, I also believe that Speaker Andar, he is always paying attention to the problem of that tower. ."

   Gawain pondered, and nodded slightly: "Well, we should trust the judgment of the two leaders. But as Herragor said, there is no problem with that tower now, and sooner or later it will be a hidden danger..."

"But at this stage, we may not be able to solve that tower," Humber couldn't help but say, "The dragon race that can fight the most is already lying down. There is only an egg left to suppress that tower. There is only one left in the world. The Loren continent is a group of mortal nations-but the strongest and capable of going to sea is the only ship of the winter. Besides, even if the remaining ships under construction are all completed in an instant and all tested and trained, The fleet that is assembled can't defeat the ancient heritage, right?"

  Gao Wen couldn’t help but glance at the shame of everything, who was seriously analyzing the situation-every word of this product was so hateful, but what was even more annoying was that she was actually right...

He shook his head and sighed-as one of the most trusted people around him and as the intelligence minister of the empire, Amber now has no less knowledge of many ancient secrets than him. In most cases, this guy's Flexible thinking and keen eyesight can help me solve many problems, but it would be better if she could be more careful with her mouth. By the way, when she met Rosetta before, she also showed that she was able to advance and retreat. Why did she return to the state of running a train after get off work? Is it because she didn't pay for overtime?

"It cannot be defeated. Based on the strength of the Eternal Slate, I doubt that our weapons can break the defense of that tower," Gawain put away his scattered thoughts and said with a serious expression, "At this stage we can do it. The point is to complete the establishment of the joint alert circle as soon as possible, especially to deploy enough anti-aircraft firepower in the northern coastal areas of the mainland as soon as possible, to ensure that the contaminated dragon can be completely shot down if they appear. Anyway, no polluter can be released. Entering the country to come into contact with the intelligent creatures of the Loren Continent... The divine pollution is really terrible."

"In addition, we have to warn them in subsequent meetings," Melita said, "make them understand that contaminated dragons are more dangerous than those that simply prey on food. The latter may be able to communicate, and the former... contact is Natural disasters."

   Amber rolled his eyes next to him: "I have some sympathy for the representatives-their mood will definitely fluctuate for several rounds these days."

"Training your mind will help them improve their ability to withstand stress. They will use it sooner or later anyway," Gawain said casually, and then showed a thoughtful look. "But now there is a problem... how do we recognize the problem? Dragons polluted by the tide and dragons who are simply hungry and want to plunder food? After all, it is reasonable and we should keep those dragons that can be saved as much as possible."

Gao Wen's words are very subtle, but the part he hasn't finished is actually obvious-keep those that are still salvable as much as possible, which means that if there is really no way to filter, then you can only put everything close to Luo Unrecognizable dragons in the Lun continent were shot down. This may not sound very good, but once the sea and air security circle is established, the power of the three empires will now be used to fight the weak dragon... this is completely achievable. of.

  Hearing Gawain's words, Melita showed a faint expression but stopped, looking embarrassed and hesitant.

  This aroused Amber’s interest: "What’s the matter? There is a way but it’s not easy to do?"

  The embarrassment on Melita's face is more obvious, but at last she nodded: "In fact...the leader of Herragor has mentioned a more effective identification method in the letter, and it is not difficult to achieve..."

   Gao Wen and Amber didn’t say a word, they looked at her curiously.

"You know, the biggest difference between the dragons affected by the Tower of Upstream and the dragons purely for plundering is their motive for coming to Loren," Merita said helplessly, "The dragon affected by the Upstream, The biggest motivation to travel to the civilized world is to spread'knowledge pollution'. This kind of spiritual hint will even suppress their physical instincts, so they will rush straight to the densest place of intelligent creatures, and the biggest motivation for other dragons to come to Loren Continent It's hunger..."

  Gao Wen suddenly realized: “Understood, put a banquet on the ground, and those who fly straight toward the food can still discuss it, and ignore those who cross the border directly or approach the crowd to promote the course and kill them on the spot.”

"...This kind of statement is a bit too simple and rude, but the general process is correct," Melita said helplessly, "In addition, even if we use this method to identify, it does not rule out the possibility of accidental injury, so if it can If conditions permit, I hope you can ensure the survival of those dragons as much as possible and contact the nearest Talrond air team. We will rush to the scene for identification and disposal in the shortest time. Of course, we know that this requirement is not easy to achieve, so we still Please do your best."

Gawain nodded: "Of course, our goal at the beginning was to try our best to stay alive. After all, we have made an agreement. Every "dragon refugee" who survives and is rescued means Typhon or Cecil or The Silver Empire will get a Dragon Mercenary who has served in a contract for a hundred years-I remember this very clearly."

  The expression on Melita's face is a bit complicated: "Yes, there is this ‘deal’ agreement between Talrond and the three empires..."

Gao Wen looked at Miss Blue Dragon’s somewhat depressed expression, and sighed slightly: “This may indeed be some kind of transaction, but it can effectively protect those dragons who have a chance to be rescued, right? We cannot underestimate human nature. But it is also not to be overestimated-cold deals, sometimes for the sake of living lives."

   "You are right, I shouldn't be restrained by feelings in this matter."

"Okay, the basic plan has been set, this topic will stop here," Gao Wen coughed slightly, shifting the topic with a slightly upward tone, and also adjusted the atmosphere of the scene, "There is just something I want to follow You talk about it—I haven’t thought about when to discuss it with you, but it happened that you came tonight."

  Merita showed a hint of curiosity: "What's the matter?"

  "Do you still remember what you said to the representative who questioned the Tarrond incident today?" Gao Wen smiled, "About the thrilling and safe journey to Tarrond..."

   "Ah, I was a little angry at the time," Melita said immediately, "In fact, think about it later..."

"After thinking about it, I thought it was really okay," Gao Wen nodded solemnly before the other party was finished. "If you can really ensure that passengers can safely travel to and from Tarrond, and make certain moves in the safe zone of the wasteland. If you have a visit to a certain degree, then this matter is even better..."

  Merita: "???"

"What do you mean by this look? When I'm joking?" Gawain glanced at the Miss Blue Dragon, "I am very serious now-aren't you Tarrond lacking money and food? It's not that He Luo can't be found. Is it a breakthrough for commercial docking in the Lon continent? There are indeed many valuable technologies and heritage buried in your wasteland, but it is not easy for those things to be realized quickly. The Lon continent can provide you with a certain level of food assistance, but rely on assistance It can’t solve long-term problems-so at this stage, what is most important for you is to develop a business field that can quickly take shape, quickly generate profits, have long-term value, and can operate normally. Your speech today reminded me of this. Errond’s unique wasteland might be a good idea..."

Melita listened in a daze, almost unable to keep up with Gawain’s thoughts. After finally making sure that the other party was not joking, she finally couldn’t help but said, “Wait, stop, friend, stop-- That's a wasteland! A place where dragons are difficult to survive, you mean to let humans and elves with more fragile physique go there to'visit'?"

"I didn't say that you want you to actually send passengers into those terribly polluted areas-didn't you say that there are safe areas on the broken coast and offshore land southeast of Tarrond? And I also heard Kassandra report. Now, the environment there is still acceptable to the general race. As long as the dragons can provide a certain degree of protection and the border of the safe zone is guarded, is it possible to receive guests from the Loren mainland there?"

"This... theoretically seems possible?" Melita thought for a while, nodded a little uncertainly, but then a bigger question emerged, "But it will really benefit you? Are there so many people who spend money on the wasteland looking for bitterness? There are so many magnificent mountains and rivers in the world..."

Gawain interrupted the other party: "Yes, there are many beautiful and magnificent mountains and rivers in the world, but there is only one Tarrond-a similar wasteland landscape except that Tarrond is the Gondor pollution in the center of the Loren continent. Area, but the Gondor Wasteland obviously cannot be used for “visiting”. There are life restricted areas everywhere in it. Tarrond is different. Some areas of it may be more dangerous than the Gondor Wasteland, but other areas are still Have development value.

  "As for whether there are really so many people who will spend money on the wasteland to find hardship for themselves-I tell you, of course there are, and there are a lot of them."

Having said this, Gao Wen couldn't help but think of many memories of his previous life. He said to himself as he thought: "Don't underestimate the human's'adventurous spirit', and don't underestimate their curiosity... As far as you are concerned, Talrond is a traumatized ruin, full of survival crises, but for many people, it is a mysterious land in legends, even if it is now destroyed by war, it is also a holy land The ruins of, an abandoned house there, a broken wall, and even a charred stone all have a fatal attraction for curious explorers.

"And what you have to do is actually very simple-just find these people, take them to Tarrond safely, make sure they don’t really kill themselves in the process of dying, and then ask them for money. It's okay."
